Now, after revealing the contents of that final update, it\u2019s become a bittersweet moment for fans, as it just sounds so damn good.<\/p>\n<p>There are more pieces of the puzzle yet to be shared, but in an enormous article, Bungie laid out much of the content coming with the update, which I believe is 1) part of what was meant to come before the closure announcement after no updates to the game in six months, 2) some things pulled forward from the now-defunct expansion Shattered Cycle and 3) some teams working on additional ending content, aware of the coming shutdown.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a summary of the biggest ticket items coming, and you can read the entire <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bungie.net\/7\/en\/News\/Article\/dev_insights_return_of_the_director\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.bungie.net\/7\/en\/News\/Article\/dev_insights_return_of_the_director\" aria-label=\"100,000-word piece here\">100,000-word piece here<\/a> if you like.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ec903242dc72351c439067124a2fd3801\">The Destination map will return as the central screen for Destiny 2. While The Portal still technically exists, it is being sidelined in the game&#8217;s new layout.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ea54964eca05cc2a438abc38e2abc77c6\">Each pre-Edge of Fate destination (which would appear to be the EDZ, Cosmodrome, the Moon, Nessus, Europa, Neomuna, The Pale Heart, The Dreaming City and Savathun\u2019s Throne World), will get classic loot with updated perks\/tiers and special origin traits.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ebea7fda392e29a2d25ea3d7014a9a5ae\">Examples given were the Cosmodrome, which has the Rasputin-based Seventh Seraph CQC-12 shotgun, Nessus, which has the Vex-styled Pluperfect auto rifle and Europa, which has its former destination weapon, High Albedo, turned into the only kinetic rocket sidearm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"embed-base image-embed embed-2\" role=\"presentation\"\/>\n<ul>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ecb0b0ffc3ef5a0ab1d1896967fbc5a55\">The world loot pool is also being updated and will contain weapons from places like Season of the Splice and Season of Dawn.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ea5f01a8d390e1093ad75b0365bd902f0\">Bungie has implied that Warmind Cells will return to the game in some capacity.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ee4e04361c30e8bd428373badfde12e3e\">Bungie has implied that Xenophage is getting a catalyst.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"e0d83dce2a1fbb7a4aa5791f0488a7ef1\">Bungie has implied Titan\u2019s thruster ability is being changed to possibly be aerial, like Twilight Garrison of old.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ef114319dd20bd685804226fb9ad98d22\">All Destinations will periodically get \u201cDistortions,\u201d a new activity that makes enemies tougher, features special map events and a new weapon pool (fully new). This seems like an activity that may have been meant to arrive with Shadow and Order in the first place as a lead-in to Shattered Cycle.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"ed8b67b425be737a443aa5de8bfb49d4e\">The Portal is now streamlining its difficulty so you are guaranteed a tier of weapon without worrying about score. You can add modifiers if you want to bump yourself up a tier without changing enemy difficulty.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"embed-base image-embed embed-3\" role=\"presentation\"\/>\n<ul>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"e23f419cbdeae6bd3ac2c0af9160384d2\">Each of the Ops playlists is getting its own individual loot pool. Teases have shown that Black Armory weapons are coming back via Arena Ops. Gambit will get some of its old weapons back, like Spare Rations and 21% Delerium.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"e1f46fbbbff36562c3767b8d4291c3b74\">Onslaught, Content of Elders and The Coil now have escalating difficulty where they will start out easier in earlier rounds. Revive tokens have been removed from Onslaught altogether, and the entire Brave arsenal returns to rewards in that mode from Into the Light.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"e85357e6ab9fb9939a0a8bee92ef3c167\">Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris will have a set rotation that will now continue on forever. Like other PvP modes, they are getting loot refreshes, new weapons, armor sets and cosmetics.<\/li>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"eb7fa745e250d5e9141b7a4339b56fa86\">Heavy Metal will still exist and is adding the Behemoth (AT-ST) walker from Renegades. It\u2019s also getting a new map.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"embed-base image-embed embed-4\" role=\"presentation\"\/>\n<ul>\n<li data-list-item-id=\"e1c2549716d056b7da4f9a766eeb17204\">Sparrow Racing League has finally returned after many, many years. It will have the original four maps, plus a new one, and its been balanced so skimmers can race alongside sparrows. New boosts are possible at the starting line and after doing tricks. This will have its own armor and weapon loot pool, a shared armor set trait having to do with speed boosts, and weapons having speed-based perks, including a new sword with Eager Edge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is more to come, and a big sandbox article is out later today, along with raid and dungeon updates (where all of <em>those<\/em> are getting these levels of loot refreshes as well). It just sounds\u2026so good, and more than ever, I wish the game could continue on from here.  <\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Follow me <\/strong><\/em><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" aria-label=\"on Twitter\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\">on Twitter<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a><em><strong>, <\/strong><\/em><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" aria-label=\"YouTube\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\">YouTube<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" aria-label=\",\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\">,<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a> <em><strong>and <\/strong><\/em><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" aria-label=\"Instagram\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\">Instagram<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a><em><strong>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Pick up my sci-fi novels the <\/strong><\/em><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" aria-label=\"Herokiller series\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\">Herokiller series<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a> <em><strong>and <\/strong><\/em><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" aria-label=\"The Earthborn Trilogy\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\"><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\"><u data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\">The Earthborn Trilogy<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/paultassi\/2026\/05\/29\/destiny-2-reveals-its-last-update-will-be-its-best-in-years\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 players continue to mourn the upcoming closure of the game&#8217;s live service, which will see no more updates after its June 9 additions.
